The Art and Background of Old English Poetry
Barbara C. Raw
This book claims to be concerned with Old English poetry in its social context. The first half considers the relationship of the poet to his audience on the one hand; on the other to the world he describes. So the emphasis is on performance, on the varieties of poetic authority, and on the kinds of abstraction from the real world which the poet chooses to make. The second half of the book is about the style and structure of the poems.
